On_Sabbatical 11 Posted July 28, 2011 How come that a Metis rocket can blow a warrior in one shot,but can't kill an Apache on the ground ,knowing that apache armor value is alot smaller than warrior's one? Same for MAWWS which can kill a BMP in one shot,but can't kill Kamov on the ground ? In editor i shoot M1A1 using another M1A1,result:it disables it but dont explode. I shoot a T90 with M1A1,the T90 explodes few seconds after,know that T90 and M1A1 have same armor value ?:confused: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfbite 8 Posted July 29, 2011 I was pretty suprised when I shot a Blackhawk with an rpg and it simply did not give a duck... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gossamersolid 155 Posted July 29, 2011 I was in a UH-60 and we got shot by a PG7-VR and it blew us right out of the sky. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CarlGustaffa 4 Posted July 29, 2011 Well I've shot down tonnes of helicopters using MAAWS and to lesser extent M136. Not so much RPG7 as I tend to play west. But they all went down, as long as I'm able to hit it. And that's what ultimately counts. The problem isn't that helicopter don't explode, but that most vehicles explode pretty much instantly giving the wrong impression of these weapons capabilities. Quite a few HMMWVs even "survived" direct RPG hits. Like in the Battle of Mogadishu, 2 Blackhawks were shot down and 3 others damaged by RPG (and probably also some small arms fire). None of which "exploded". What's this damned obsession with blowing shit up? I really don't get it. Forget the points. It's the objective that matters...

Dreahack 10 Posted July 30, 2011 (edited) Just go to editor,place an AH1Z,and shoot it with Metis while it's on the ground,if it blows up ... I'm not talking about experience during MP games,i am talking about a bug which can be verified via simple tests Edited July 31, 2011 by Dreahack Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beagle 684 Posted August 1, 2011 (edited) That's a problem that can't be solved in this game. RL a Heavy MG is more dangerous for a light armoured vehicle compared to a RPG. A RPG does not do more damage to an soft target as a cal. 50 BMG round. The problem in A2 furthermore is the hitpoint damage handling and the simple fact that all ATweaponsare way too strong modeled.

BigMorgan 11 Posted August 4, 2011 As an interesting example, try shooting an M1A2 with a Shilka. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
